What we do
It starts with knowing exactly what you owe
Nothing can be negotiated until there is a complete record of your account. We pull your transcripts, trace where the balance came from, and tell you which options are genuinely open to you. Only then does it make sense to talk about settlements or payment plans.

01
We read your notice with you
Call and tell us what arrived in the mail. We will explain what the IRS is actually asking for and what happens if nothing is done. No charge, no obligation.
-
02

Transcripts, filings, balances, penalties. Until that record is complete, anyone promising you an outcome is guessing.

Settlement, payment plan, hardship status or simply getting current. We will say plainly which one fits — including when you do not need us at all.
Why people call us
You are talking to the people who work your case
Combined, our core team has nearly a century in tax resolution. Cases are worked by tax attorneys, CPAs and enrolled agents, supported by settlement officers and case managers who keep your file moving.
Getting you a good result matters to us as much as keeping you informed. Whether it is a simple update, a lien or levy notice, or you are trying to close on a house, someone here will be available to help you make the right decision.
Who we help
Ordinary people who fell behind
Almost nobody plans to owe the IRS. A business slowed, an illness landed, a return went unfiled and then another. It compounds quietly.
In their words
What our clients say
I had great experience working with everyone at Offer Tax. They helped me through all steps to save me from great stress and bring me back to good standards.
I spoke to Josh on my back taxes. Joshua's supreme customer service was helpful to answer and resolve my tax issue. It felt like he really cared about my family, myself and my tax issue.
Joshua and Kevin were very outstanding. They made everything perfectly easy to understand, and were very helpful in answering all of my questions and concerns.
John Michael got my process started and Joshua Price did most of the work. For legal advice Alba Salgado was a great help. All excellent, and they worked hard for me.
Straight answers
Questions we get on the first call
Will the IRS really settle for less than I owe?
Sometimes. An Offer in Compromise is real, but it is not automatic and it is not for everyone. The IRS looks at your income, your allowable living expenses and the equity in what you own, then works out what it could realistically collect. If that figure comes to less than what you owe, a settlement becomes possible. Call and we will walk through the arithmetic with you.
The IRS called and threatened to arrest me. Is that real?
No. That call was a scam. The IRS opens contact by mail, and it does not demand payment by gift card, wire transfer or cryptocurrency. Hang up. If you have a real balance you will have received written notices, and those are the documents worth bringing to us.
How long does this take?
It depends on what you need. A levy release can move in days where there is a demonstrable hardship. An installment agreement usually takes weeks. An Offer in Compromise commonly runs six months to a year or more, because the IRS reviews your full financial picture. Starting earlier always produces more options.
Can you stop a wage garnishment?
Often, yes. The IRS will usually release a garnishment once you enter an installment agreement, and most states will lower or modify one where you can demonstrate hardship. The important thing is acting before more of your paycheck is taken.
I have years of unfiled returns. Is it too late?
It is not too late, and filing them is almost always the first step. The IRS will not consider a settlement or a payment plan while returns are outstanding. Getting current is what opens the door to everything else.
What does it cost to talk to you?
Nothing. The first conversation is free and there is no obligation. If you have a notice in hand, call and we will read it with you and tell you plainly what it means.
Not sure where you stand?
Call and we will read your notice with you and tell you plainly what it means. No charge for that conversation, and no obligation after it.
